1．Without any hesitation，he said，"I'd be better off dead．"Hearing those words come out of my best friend's mouth tore my heart apart．He has repeated that phrase more than once，and my mind continually plays it over like a voice recording．
    I met him about three years ago．After knowing me for six months，he told me about his struggles with depression．Sadness was not the only emotion that came over me；I was shocked．He seemed so outgoing and happy all the time．I soon learned that he was physically and emotionally abused as a young child，causing him to have suicidal（自杀的）thoughts．
    He refuses to talk to others about his depression because he now distrusts adults，especially those in his family．Nevertheless，he feels as if I understand him and that I know the right words to speak．Therefore，when it comes to helping him，convenience is not in my vocabulary．It does not matter where I am or what I am doing，for he always comes first．
    Many students at his school laugh at him when they notice scars on his arms from cutting．As he sees it，other kids have every right to make fun of him．But no one holds such a right，so I encourage him to ignore the heartless kids who treat him badly．When he feels the weight of judging eyes or hateful voices，I always remind him that I care about him unconditionally．Just hearing me say I will always be his best friend seems to give him the security he needs to keep on going．
    My best friend once told me that if he had not had me，he would not be alive．He said that my encouraging words convinced him not to take his life．Our friendship has taught me that a single kind word can influence someone's life．With the fragility（脆弱）of life as it is，I believe in the necessity of encouragement．

20．About 10 years ago，I started a job as a trainer for a telemarketing agency．In one of my first classes，the head trainer told a very inspiring story．
He began by drawing a stickman standing in the middle of a circle．To make it more interesting，he drew things like a house，a car，and a few friends inside the circle．
He asked the question，"Can anyone tell me what this is？"In a long silence，one guy decided to throw out"the world？"The trainer said，"That's close and this is your Comfort Zone．Inside your circle you have all the things that are important to you．"
"Your home，your family，your friends，and your job．People feel that inside this circle they are safe from any danger or conflict．"
"Can anyone tell me what happens when you step out of this circle？"A strong silence came over the room．The same eager guy abruptly announced，"You are afraid．"
Another guy said，"You make mistakes．"The silence continued and the trainer smiled and said，"When you make mistakes，what can the result be？"
    The first guy shouted，"You learn something．"
"Exactly，you are learning．"The trainer turned to the board and drew an arrow pointing from the stickman directly to the outside of the circle．He continued to say，"When you leave your Comfort Zone you put yourself out there，in front of the world to be in situations that you are not comfortable with．"
"The end result is that you have learned something that you did not know and you expand your knowledge to become a better person．"He turned again to the board and drew a bigger circle around the original circle，and added a few new things like more friends，a bigger house，etc．
"The moral of the story is that if you stay inside your Comfort Zone，you will never be able to expand your horizons and learn．When you step out of your Comfort Zone you will eventually make your circle bigger and your mind grow stronger，and all in all a better person．"

19．Prayer for My Mother
Dear God，
Now that I am no longer young，I have friends whose mothers have passed away．I have heard these sons and daughters say they never fully appreciated their mothers until it was too late to tell them．
I am blessed with the dear mother who is still alive．I appreciate her more each day． My mother does not change，but I do．As I grow older and wiser，I realize what an extraordinary person she is．How sad that I am unable to speak these words in her presence，but they flow easily from my pen．
How does a daughter begin to thank her mother for life itself？For the love，patience and just plain hard work that go into raising a child？For running after a toddler （学步儿童），for understanding a moody teenager，for tolerating a college student who knows everything？For waiting for the day when a daughter realizes what her mother really is？
How does a grown woman thank for a mother for continuing to be a mother？For being ready with advice when asked or remaining silent when it is most appreciated？For not saying："!told you so"，when she could have voiced these words dozens of times？For being essentially herself-loving，thoughtful，patient，and forgiving？
I don't know how，dear God，except to bless her as richly as she deserves（应得） and to help me live up to the example she has set．I pray that I will look as good in the eyes of my children as my mother looks in mine
A daughter
